Under Indian law, since there was a bodily injury (hairline fracture), this falls under Section 279 and 337 of IPC (rash driving and causing hurt by negligence). Your brother may face a case that could result in imprisonment up to 6 months and/or fine, though first-time offenders often receive lighter sentences if they compensate the victim and reach a settlement.
